    I’m just here for the ratio and the responses but can’t resist noting that My first thought was, “Ew, hawking up loogies into your mask after smoking a bunch of cigs is gross.”https://twitter.com/bethanyshondark/status/1423390210293997570 …

        OK, apparently it a child's mask, but even so just change the mask more often...

        Maybe mask wearing will reduce cigarette smoking. Also that’s just poor hygiene all around.

        I wonder how much of mask resistance comes from folks with poor dental hygiene regimes?pic.twitter.com/YydZ3PWqaY

        My kids have worn masks all day at school and while singing and dancing in a 2 hour musical theater production — with theater makeup on — and their masks never looked like this. They also know to change them if they get soiled.

        I always knew we had crappy doctors in the US, I just didn’t know they could get verified on Twitter.

        That photo is repeated in numerous tweets on her thread to magnify the horror. I don’t quite get it, plus of course she is a holy home-schooler.
